Falcon & Knelson Concentrators Compared
Read these papers and try to Compare Falcon & Knelson Concentrators only to find out; they perform the same. Both use high gravity centrifugal forces to separate gold from ore with similar results. Do no be fooled by the propaganda. The laws of gravity apply to everyone whether you believe in them or not.
See-saw Crusher

The See-Saw Crusher is made of a very heavy stone or steel ‘see-saw’ crushers are rolled over the material which is to be crushed with the aid of a lever arm. The material is placed on a flat stone or steel surface and the product is similar to that from a roller crusher.
Ball Casting Machine

This machine is designed especially to make cast steel balls, utilizing the newly patented Payne hot top principle. This machine will produce solid cast alloy steel balls equal in quality to the best forged steel balls, at a very low cost. The Ball Casting Machine consists essentially of a rotary turntable and thirty-six copper ball […]
Arrastra

The Arrastra was also one of the earliest crushing machines in use in America, being introduced at the same time as the Patio process—i.e., about 1557—and is still in wide use in Mexico, although chiefly in the treatment of silver ores by the Patio process. It is a circular, shallow, flat-bottomed pit, 10 to 20 feet […]
Gold Amalgamation Equipment

AMALGAM PRESS The Amalgam Press is used wherever the process of amalgamation is practiced. The amalgam is wrapped in a wet chamois skin and inserted in the press, which extrudes the surplus amalgam. The press consists of a steel cylinder, slotted on the sides and perforated on the bottom. The steel piston is forced into […]

Heap Leaching

Heap leaching of gold and silver ores is conducted at approximately 120 mines worldwide. Heap leaching is one of several alternative process methods for treating precious metal ores, and is selected primarily to take advantage of its low capital cost relative to other methods. Thirty-seven different heap leach operations with a total production of 198 […]
Pachuca Tank

Pachuca tanks are used for a wide variety of leaching and mixing operations in the minerals industry. Previously, an equation was derived to predict the circulation in a Pachuca tank with full height draft tube risers. This analysis was subsequently verified with data from a large bore air-water flow loop used. However, the equation was based on the assumption that the solids settling velocity was […]
